Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that can form inside the body, binding internal organs together...and leaving the victim to suffer incredible pain. Since adhesions elude the eye of standard medical tests, and many doctors do not discuss the illness itself, a proper diagnosis of adhesions, or ARD (Adhesion Related Disorder), is often left up to the sufferer!

Hello Karen,

I am writing you as a happy "Canadian" who just had adhesions surgery with Dr. Kruschinski in Germany. I woke up feeling already so much better. The understanding of this disease from your daughter's story gave me so much courage to take this step forward.

At the same time, I want my fellow Canadians to know there is help and not to suffer in silence like I did for the past several years.

Unfortunately for us (North Americans), we have to travel miles away from our homes to get helped. Especially Canada who claims to have one of the best medical coverage funded by our governments. So sad.

Last comments from my Canadian doctors were: "I suffer from chronic depression.....this was all in my head...." just as you have explained in your book.

Thank you very much for your help. Remember, people today are much more educated and seeking more opinions before trusting their own doctors!!!!!!
